PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
Lorrie Trogden | President & CEO | Arkansas Bankers Association
been a fantastic year, and I want to thank you for traveling 2023 has with us on the journey! Let’s recap at all we have accomplished together.
Government Relations. The ABA lobbying team, our members and the ABA Government Relations Advisory Council have worked tirelessly to support good legislation and defeat bad legislation at both the state and federal level. You have made hundreds of calls and sent hundreds of emails to your local legislators and federal delegation about legislation that matters to us – your voices moved the needle on major policy and you deserve to be proud about that! I have sincerely enjoyed traveling the state this year visiting with your bankers and boards to talk about our efforts in government relations. (and I’ve got the hats to prove it!) I’m ready to hit the road again in 2024!
“By popular demand, I’m thrilled to announce that we are bringing back our compliance conference and bank management seminar in 2024. There are other big plans in the works for next year that we know you will be excited about!” 2 • WINTER 2023
Education. As the premiere provider in the state for banking education, we have offered, and you have joined us in thousands of hours of top-quality education. By popular demand, I’m thrilled to announce that we are bringing back our compliance conference and bank management seminar in 2024. There are other big plans in the works for next year that we know you will be excited about! Your investment in our education helps us to put that money to work for you, for our industry, and for your customers.
